About the Honeymoon series

Nora Sinclair is a serial killer who marries wealthy men and then murders them for their money -- a black-widow premise James Patterson and Howard Roughan use to build a cat-and-mouse thriller from the killer's own point of view as much as from the FBI agent hunting her. Honeymoon (2005) introduces Nora and Agent John O'Hara, whose pursuit becomes personally and dangerously entangled with his target; Second Honeymoon (2013) picks the chase back up years later after Nora resurfaces.

The two-book series is a self-contained arc rather than an open franchise, giving readers a complete predator-and-pursuer story without the expectation of further sequels.

How to read this series

Read Honeymoon (2005) first -- it introduces Nora Sinclair and Agent O'Hara and ends their initial confrontation. Second Honeymoon (2013) is a direct continuation set years later and assumes you already know how the first book ended, so reading out of order will spoil the earlier novel's ending.
